AP Computer Science AB help: preps, books, etc.

Test Preparation AP Mathematics & Computer Science
1

<p>I'm taking AP Computer Science this year independently, since our school didn't have enough people interested in the class. I learn based off the Lewis & Loftus Java Software Solutions (6th edition). AP test is nearly here, and I'm not quite comfortable with the material...I mean, I did go through and do a bulk of the book, but I have no idea what the test is like, how difficult it is, and how they are going to cover the case study.</p>

<p>Princeton Review seem to have stop making their books for computer science, since the latest one I can find was 06-07. I'm thinking I need one that's at least 07-08, which was when the GridWorld CaseStudy was implemented. Does anyone have any tips/good review guides they used for APCS AB that they would recommend? Also Could anyone give me a general overview of what the test is like, and its difficulty?</p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>Get the Barron’s book. It is a great prep for the test.</p>

<p>barron’s does not differentiate its books by years, unlike Princeton Review. Is that correct?</p>

<p>Barron’s definitely does put a year on their books. The one that I have (and that I have listed out on Half.Com) is a 2008 edition, complete with everything GridWorld.</p>

<p>The ISBN is 0764137093.</p>
